@newcol in @byrow! not defined about dataframesmeta.jl

[tshort]

It may be that the readme is ahead of the released version of
DataFramesMeta. You may have to checkout the most recent commit to get this
feature. I'm not at a location I can check easily.

Subject: [JuliaStats/DataFramesMeta.jl] @newCol in @byrow! not defined (#54)
To: "JuliaStats/DataFramesMeta.jl" [email protected]

Hi. Sorry to be a bother. I'm getting an error saying "UndefVarError
@newCol not defined", when running the block in the readme that includes
@byrow! and @newCol as displayed below.

df = DataFrame(A = 1:3, B = [2, 1, 2])
df2 = @byrow! df begin
@newCol colX::Array{Float64}
@newCol colY::DataArray{Int}
:colX = :B == 2 ? pi * :A : :B
if :A > 1
:colY = :A * :B
end
end

I'm trying to apply this to my own dataframe to bring separate time and
date columns into a single column that contains DateTime elements. I was
thinking this would work:

dateForm = Dates.DateFormat("d-u-y H")
newMachineData = @byrow! MachineData begin
@newCol DT::Array{DateTime}
:DT = DateTime(string(:DATE, " ", :HOUR), dateForm)
end

However, the error with @newCol is raised. It's likely I'm missing
something simple though. I am new to Julia

Yes, last version was in December, and these functions are newer than that AFAIK. It's indeed always confusing that you get the development version of the README when you browser a GitHub project. In the long-term, I guess documentation should move to Documenter.jl anyway.

Thank you guys! I apologize for the mistake.
